America is fucked. Ukraine is fucked. The world is fucked. The only glimmer of hope is Trump drops dead before his term is out.
The issue is that the heritage foundation has put JD vanced to take over for Trump when he dies
Which, and I can’t believe I’m saying this, is actually scarier than just Trump. Both are nightmares, Vance is young and wants to make tech CEOs kings
Of course. He's bankrolled by Peter Thiel and they make no false claims about it. Dude is a vindictive brat with billions to his name and absolutely 0 shame. He bankrolled Hulk Hogan's Gawker lawsuit over a grudge.
That's the seriously fucked part of all of this... Trump will run his 4 years because the worst of us never die, then the DNC runs the resurrected corpse of Regan to court the moderate vote again, loses in another landslide to Vance, Vance gets 2 terms... By then Musk runs some fiefdom, Bezos runs his own, Zuckerberg run his Hawaiian fiefdom... After that if I'm not dead I'll make sure I am.
He's still there today whispering in Trump's ear. At least if Trump were out of the picture it might derail the presidency and allow some of the weirder weirdos & grifters to be shown the the door. It may also reset republicanism to some degree since they don't have to care what some narcissist dickhead thinks at any given moment or pursue his vendettas. Also it would be karmic.
